Not exactly, but kind of. Oxygen is generally known as the final hydrogen acceptor. NAD+ and FAD are generally known as electron acceptors because they transport electrons to the electron co-enzyme chain. After the electrons go through the co-enzyme chain they bond to protons forming hydrogen which bonds to oxygen to make water.
If O2 does not do this then it is at least an intermediary ultimately conformed to CO2.
What else can I help you with?
The final electron acceptor of aerobic respiration is?
Oxygen, because it is highly electronegative.
What is the ultimate electron acceptor in aerobic respiration?
oxygen
What is the coenzyme accepting the majority of the hydrogens in aerobic respiration?
NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide), which is reduced to NADH by the hydrogen. Another molecules that performs the same function but plays a relatively more minor role is FADH, which is reduced to FADH2.
What is the relationship between ATP and aerobic respiration?
"The main function of mitochondria in aerobic cells is the production of energy by synthesis of ATP. However, mitochondria also have many other functions, including e.g.:Processing and storage of calcium ions (Ca2+).Apoptosis, i.e. the process of programmed cell deathRegulation of cellular metabolismSynthesis of certain steroids"http://www.ivy-rose.co.uk/Biology/Organelles/Organelle-Functions.php
Respiration with and without oxygen is called?
Aerobic respiration requires oxygen; anaerobic respiration does not use oxygen.
The final electron acceptor of aerobic respiration is?
Oxygen, because it is highly electronegative.
What is considered the ultimate electron acceptor?
Oxygen is considered the ultimate electron acceptor in aerobic respiration. It accepts electrons at the end of the electron transport chain, forming water as a byproduct.
What happens in glycolisis?
Glucose is converted into pyruvate.It is common to aerobic and non aerobic erspiration.Glucose is splited and converted into pyruvate..It is common to aerobic and non aerobic respiration.
What atom accepts electrons at the of the electron transport chain?
The atom that accepts electrons at the end of the electron transport chain is oxygen. Oxygen acts as the final electron acceptor in aerobic respiration, combining with electrons and protons to form water.
What product is released during aerobic respiration after oxygen accepts hydrogen?
Water is released during aerobic respiration after oxygen accepts hydrogen. This occurs during the electron transport chain in the inner mitochondrial membrane.
What is another name for cellular respiration?
Tissue respiration, or internal respiration. you are probably looking for aerobic respiration
Is oxygen a terminal electron acceptor?
Yes, oxygen is a terminal electron acceptor in aerobic respiration. In this process, oxygen accepts electrons and protons to form water, providing the final step in the electron transport chain to generate ATP.
What is the final electron receptor in cellular respiration?
oxygen is used to pull electrons down to the Electron Transport Chain which pumps H+ to create H+ gradient :)
The terminal electron acceptor in aerobic respiration is water is it broken down to hydrogen and oxygen?
No, it is the other way round:The terminal electron acceptor in aerobic respiration is oxygen. Together with H+ ions water molecules are formed. O2 + 4 e- + 4 H+ ==> 2 H2O
What happens when that final electron acceptor accepts electrons from the electron transport chain?
Hydrogen ions are pumped across the mitochondria's inner membrane producing a concentration gradient
What do you call respiration that requires oxygen?
The answer to this question is very hard. If you wish to know the answer, go to google and google it. Thank you, the Answering Co.
Is pyruvic acid a product of both aerobic and anerobic respiration?
Yes, pyruvic acid is a product of both aerobic and anaerobic respiration. In aerobic respiration, pyruvic acid is further broken down in the mitochondria, while in anaerobic respiration it is converted into either lactic acid or ethanol to regenerate NAD+ for glycolysis to continue.
